'I mean really?' Shane Lowry stunned at reporter's response to his answer at Tour Championship
Shane Lowry left shocked as presenter Ali McCann tells him she has never heard of Oasis.
It might have been the biggest UK celebrity news story of 2024 so far, but not everyone has heard of Oasis, especially those in the United States... much to the surprise of PGA Tour star Shane Lowry.
Noel and Liam Gallagher confirmed the band's reunion on Tuesday following weeks of speculation.
News of Oasis' 2025 UK Tour comes 15 years after Noel decided to quit the band following a reported fallout with his brother.
Speaking to FanDuel presenter Ali McCann ahead of this week's FedEx Cup finale at the Tour Championship, Ireland's Lowry was asked which celebrity he would most like to grab a drink with in the future.
Lowry did not hesitate in his response but instead of selecting just one celebrity, he chose Manchester-based rock band Oasis.
Only McCann was none the wiser.
After all, Oasis never made it big in the USA.
Lowry could not believe his ears!

"Oh, I'd love to have a drink with Oasis," said Lowry. "You know Oasis are back together?"
A perplexed McCann responded: "I don't even know..."
"You don't know who Oasis are?" said a shocked Lowry.
"Oh my god... you're obviously way younger than me.
"This is like the biggest news ever. You need to look them up."
McCann covered her face and laughed: "I'm so sorry, I'll do that immediately after this."
Lowry, still stunned, said: "She doesn't know Oasis, blasphemy."
McCann said: "No, no, I'm sorry. I just ruined this whole interview. I'm so sorry."
"It's going to make it good though," said Lowry.
